Derby - Railway Terrace
The Brunswick Inn is part of the oldest purpose built self-contained railway community in Britain. This mini-community was built by the North Midland Railway Company in 1842 and it comprised of the pub, four shops and eighty houses built for railway workers. The pub ceased trading in 1974 and it - plus the cottages - were earmarked for demolition in 1978. However, realising the buildings had Grade-II listed status, the Derby Historic Buildings Trust became involved, and after some robust negotiations the Council agreed to help restore the area. The pub was restored in 1984 and then re-opened as a free house in 1987. The micro-brewery extension was built in 1991 and today it is Derby's oldest working brewery.It changed hands in 2002 but has nonetheless managed to maintain an exceptional reputation. The railway station lies ahead to the left and the row of listed former railway workers' cottages are situated in Calvert Street behind the pub.

Derby Railway Conservation Area
A view down Railway Terrace towards Derby Midland Station. The shops, houses and public house on the right, designed by Francis Thompson, were built shortly after the completion of Derby Tri-Junct station in 1840. The houses were fully occupied by 1843. This is believed to be one of the earliest examples of a settlement for railway workers.

The Brunswick Inn
The Brunswick Inn is a renowned real ale pub which also has its own brewery. It forms the end building of Railway Terrace, a row of Victorian buildings, opened in 1842 for the more senior railway staff. Many years ago, the whole area had fallen into disrepair. However, in 1979 it was declared a conservation area and years after the buildings were all restored and brought up to modern living standards.
